PharmaOnco™ Peptidoglycan and (1->3)-β-D-glucan Detection Kit
CAT#: ITS-0924-HMM41
Product Type: Assay Kit
Short Description
Creative Biolabs offers Peptidoglycan and (1->3)-β-D-glucan Detection Kit to help you quantify your assays.
Description
This product can detect both peptidoglycan (PG) and (1->3)-β-D-glucan (BDG). It employs a self-defense mechanism derived from the silkworm Bombyx mori, resulting in a color change due to the formation of black melanin pigment in the presence of microbial contamination. Given that PG is present in all bacterial cell walls and BDG is found in most fungi, the SLP (silkworm larvae plasma) reagent serves as a highly sensitive and versatile method for identifying microbial contamination.
